From Michael P. Mastroianni, PhD - Assistant Secretary for Education
On behalf of Governor Hochul and the entire State of New York, congratulations to the Class of 2023! Governor Hochul is so proud of all that the Class of 2023 has overcome, and the years of hard work that has brought each graduate to this wonderful milestone.
In an effort to transform New York's public higher education system and make it easier for high school seniors to attend college, SUNY and CUNY are reaching out to high school seniors in new ways with personalized letters, enrollment coaching and tutorials, and multiple points of contact to assist with enrolling in college and applying for financial aid.
Please share the following video with your graduates and their families. Districts are also encouraged to share the video during graduation ceremonies as appropriate.
